Do you live in Europe? I do. Jews are not exactly welcome here and have not been for some time. While there is token talk of Israeli support, and a lot of Christian friends here actually support Israel by taveling there for vacation, it is also an unspoken that Israel must be condemned for her very existence and nobody is willing to even hear that the percentage of Jews in Palestine in 1948 was about 3-1 compared to muslims. You cannot talk about the Jews without hearing all kinds of false accusations used against them prior to the 2nd WW being stated again as if nothing happened. Old lies die a slow death here. The lies still permeate the culture. It (the thinking and reasoning) seems very much like pre-WWII here at times. That increases as pro-Nazism is growing. While it might not be to the point of forcing people onto boats or cattle cars yet, the underlying feeling is sympathetic to it.

I have heard much the same from friends who lived there. Especially from the French Jews who move away. There are little communities of formerly European Jews who leave Europe to come to America or go to Israel.

Some things never change.

I read your comment the other day and intended to save it as an informative one. I forgot completely, but have happened to see it again and it is now saved. Thanks!
